VEGAN DLT (DULSE, LETTUCE, AND TOMATO) SANDWICHES
Dulse is a delicious and very nutritious sea vegetable. Its salty flavor and crispy texture make it an excellent substitute for bacon in this sandwich with much less sodium and fat than the "real" thing.

Steps:
- Dry fry the dulse in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, until the leaves turn greenish (black=burnt). Let cool.
- Meanwhile, toast bread (if desired) and slice tomato. Spread bread with vegenaise. Top with dulse, lettuce, and tomato. If desired, season with salt and pepper.
SMOKY TOFU, LETTUCE, AND TOMATO SANDWICHES (VEGAN BLTS)
Tofu, quickly seared and seasoned, is the "meat" of this hearty, comforting sandwich. Of course, actual bacon can be subbed in for the meat-eaters in the house!

Steps:
- Set a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the olive oil. When the olive oil is hot, add the tofu along with a pinch of salt. The tofu will hiss and jump around a bit, so watch out! Cook, flipping occasionally, until golden brown on both sides, 8-10 minutes. While the tofu cooks, mix the Tamari, pure maple syrup, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. When the tofu is done, reduce the heat to low and pour the Tamari mix over the top. Cook, flipping occasionally, until the sauce has reduced and thickened, about 1 minute. Transfer the smoky seared tofu to a plate.
- Toast the bread then smear each piece with mayonnaise, as little or as much as you like - 2 teaspoons to 2 tablespoons or so. Top four pieces of bread with tomatoes; sprinkle with a touch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the tofu, then pile with the lettuce. Top with remaining slices of bread. Cut in half and serve.
MY FAVORITE VEGAN SANDWICH
I always make this for lunch when we go camping, and my (non-vegan) brother-in-law and father-in-law have absolutely fallen in love with it. These measurements are estimates. Just eyeball it. Feel free to experiment with different flavors of hummus and add other veggies to your heart's content.

Tips:
- To make the dulse flakes, simply roast dulse in an oven at 300°F for 10-15 minutes, or until crispy.
- If you don't have dulse flakes, you can use crumbled nori or wakame seaweed instead.
- Be sure to use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best flavor.
- If you don't have vegan mayonnaise, you can make your own by blending silken tofu, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
- For a heartier sandwich, add a slice of vegan cheese or tofu to the sandwich.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately, or wrap them in plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator for later.
